Khloe Kardashian and her husband Lamar Odom have been quiet about the news that Lamar Odom has a drug addiction. Who ISNT keeping quiet… Lamar Odom’s drug dealer! He says that Lamar Odom’s drug of choice was cocaine and that he isn’t aware of him doing other drugs like crack or OxyCotin. His drug dealer also is saying that even though Lamar Odom is a nice guy, he has an addictive personality and it was an issue. He loves to party and told his dealer that he’s spent over 50 thousand dollars on drugs. Hopefully his family and friends are helping him through this.

Congratulations to Rachel Zoe! She has officially confirmed that she’s pregnant with baby number two! Rachel Zoe made the announcement on her website, writing: “Rodger, Skyler and I hope that everyone had an amazing summer! Before we head into the chaos of fashion season we wanted to take a moment to OFFICIALLY confirm that we are expeting another child. We are beyond excited for Skyler to have a sibling and for us to fall in love all over again. We feel incredibly blessed. Tank you all for your constant love and support of our family.” How cute! Congratulations to Rachel Zoe and her family!

It is now official and they can scream it from the rooftops! Jennifer Lopez, Keith Urban and Harry Connick Jr are your American Idol judges! We all pretty much knew, but now Ryan Seacrest has confirmed it! Jennifer Lopez said "It was so hard for me to leave the first time. To be honest right now is the worst time for me to stop and do Idol. I’m doing two movies and I have my album coming out, but I’m doing it because I want to. I love it." Harry Connick Jr. said "I have always been a huge fan of American Idol and really enjoyed my time as a mentor on the show. And I am honored that they’ve asked me to be a judge this season. As an entertainer, I am truly excited to bring my perspective to American Idol, and to help emerging performers find their way.” Randy Jackson, who after 12 years as a judge and left the show in May, will return as an in-house mentor. The judges start work this week in Boston. The season begins in January.

Congratulations to Katie Couric! She is engaged to her boyfriend of nearly two years, banker John Molner. A rep for Katie Couric confirmed the engagement. John Molner popped the question with a diamond ring at sunset on the beach in East Hampton, New York. Katie Couric has been a widow since her husband Jay Monahan died from colon cancer in 1998. Now her wish to be happy again has come true. Congratulations to them!

Looks like you can put the nail in the coffin when it comes to HBO’s True Blood. HBO announced today that next season which will be season seven of the vampire hit series will be the last. The final 10 episodes are set to air in the summer of 2014. Michael Lombardo, president of HBO Programming said "True Blood has been nothing short of a defining show for HBO. Alan Ball took the books by Charlaine Harris, assembled a brilliant cast led by the magnificent Anna Paquin in the role of Sookie Stackhouse, and crafted a show that has taken its many devoted fans on an unforgettable journey. Alan passed the baton to Brian Buckner, who led our fantastic writers and crew in crafting a spectacular sixth season, and he will lead us through the seventh and final season of this amazing show. Together with its legions of fans, it will be hard to say goodbye.. but I look forward to what promises to be a fantastic final chapter of this incredible show." Bye bye vampires!

It’s so scary and crazy to think that Simon Cowell is going to be a dad! Even scarier, he’s determined to do it his own way. That’s right, Simon Cowell is insisting that the birth of his child won’t make him become a softy. Believe it or not, he's actually a natural with children. He said, "I am good with kids because I like kids. I really do like them and I listen to them. Once I got used to [becoming a father] I did get excited. I think I will be a good dad!" He better get excited, because it’s just been revealed that he is expecting a baby boy! But, he said he absolutely isn’t going anywhere near a dirty diaper and that won’t be his responsibility. He’ll just get a nanny. Having money is nice!

Exciting news for Jessica Simpson fans! She’s taken a long enough maternity leave and has decided to head back to work in a recording studio! That’s right! Jessica Simpson is staging her musical comeback! My sources are telling me that she is excited to start recording songs that she wants to record. At this point in her career, she no longer has to worry about singing songs a record label or her dad tells her to record. She can sing whatever makes her happy. I’d love to hear new stuff from her!

Yesterday I reported that Miley Cyrus said she was troubled. Well, now she’s speaking up about her VMA performance and it looks like she had a motif. She doesn’t care what critics have to say because she doesn’t pay attention to the negative. She’s seen this play out and defended her dance moves. Miley Cyrus said, “You know now… you know what’s happened. Madonna’s done it, Britney’s done it. Every VMA performance, anyone that performs…that’s what you are looking for.” She wanted to make history. Miley Cyrus said “Me and Robin Thicke the whole time said ‘You know you are about to make history right now?’” Since the show aired Miley Cyrus has been the center of attention and she loves that, especially because people are overthinking it. So she got exactly what she wanted…
